The arroy, for this work will be finished in a Fars short timo, when this important step will at once be commoneod. The pits are all said to ba rich in gold, in fact the country in nearly every spot is said to bear treous of this valuable mineral. A rich gold-bearing lode, ruuning faidy streight in a N. aud S. direction, has been dissovered on the slope. At the present time the company have coolies at work damming the river in its deepest place, in order that it may be ascertained whother or act it would pay to work it for gold. As far as they have gave now, gold has been found in payable qunatitie, but about three weeks will see this portion of the cornjany's aporationa con- oluded. When the survey is finished and the water is brought on the alluvial groand, the working of this alone is departed to Le saliviout to bring to the shareholders a good return on their outlay. The difficulty is with the labour. The company have now about 250 coolies at work, bat none of them can be depanded upon to remain. Siamese and Laos cónties are prefer red on accosut of their being more accustomed to the climatehau the Chinese. There is ons of the latest American (five) stamps on the ground awaiting labour for erection, and we are given to understand that sixty more hond of Stamps have bean ordered. The prevent antisi- patins about the shares are largely based on the expected report regarding the washings of the embanked river.
